Book excerpt: Essential Latin for Lawyers provides translations, discussions, and explanations of Latin legal terminology that law students and lawyers are most likely to use. Unlike other reference books, this book is arranged by subject areas in law, such as constitutional law, contracts, property, torts, general terms, etc. The book also contains a glossary of approximately 290 Latin terms that occur frequently in legal writing, an appendix, and a guide to classical Latin pronunciation. Since the first edition of this book was published in 1990, lawyers, lawmakers, judges, and legal scholars have continued to use Latin words and phrases in their legal writing and analysis and show no signs of discontinuing that practice. This second edition updates legal Latin terminology by adding dozens of references, illustrations, and quotes from cases decided in the last few decades. In addition, references to statutes and model acts that have been amended subsequent to 1990 have been brought up to date to reflect amended wording and numbering systems. Essential Latin for Lawyers explains legal Latin words and phrases in context by using cases, statutes, and hypotheticals; it is not merely a dictionary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Maurice and I created this guidebook to assist international lawyers and law students seeking to master, or at least to decipher, the Latin recurrently injected into our profession's already arcane argot. It may seem strange that a reference book-sized niche remains in the twenty-first century given the profusion of legal reference works, but the fact remains that recognizing the need for a guidebook like this one is a little uncomfortable. The use of Latin in international legal writing is supposed to appear natural, if not inevitable. We typically pepper our writings with Latin as if the dead language were cayenne in a jambalaya-the more the better. Yet, at some level we are all aware that we often obscure rather than clarify our meaning when we use it instead of plain English. And when we get the Latin right, which we frequently do, and pronounce the words without butchering them beyond all hope of recognition, which we occasionally do, the practice nonetheless tends to baffle law students and even experienced international lawyers unschooled in the vernacular of Cicero. Aspiring international lawyers may wonder about the ubiquity of Latin in international legal discourse in the first place. It may seem that the esoterism of such a prevalent practice can only be intentional. The official explanation is that much early international law was developed by the Roman Empire, and the much admired Roman civil law has found its way by analogy into public international law wherever a lacuna or ambiguity in the principles of international law arose.1 When combined with the fact that Latin was the scholarly lingua franca of most of Europe during international law's early development, international lawyers have inherited an even better-stocked arsenal of Latin phrases and terms than other lawyers"--
